This girl in my CHE discussion asks random questions that we’re already supposed to know the answer to. She goes, “What’s a mol?” Are you serious? Then the TA says that it’s 6.022x10^23. She goes on to ask why it’s not 6.032 or some other number. The TA tells her that it was determined experimentally and that it’s right, so we just need to plug it in and use it. She’s still not satisfied with the...

The SOC reading test was easy, but I got the extra credit wrong. Why!? The question was about education percent. The answer was Iran, but I put China. A lot of people put China as well, though.
The MAT test was a group quiz. I’d rather it be an individual, so I did the quiz on my own. It was pretty easy.
My CHE professor lectures too fast. He keeps swiping the notes off the projector and putting new ones on. After CHE, I went home to do more MAT homework.
I went to MAT and fell asleep for thirty minutes only to find out that the professor was on the exact same problem. What!?! I don’t like the way he lectures… He makes things so confusing.
I read the Feliciano reading and did MAT homework. There are too many problems for homework!
We went to Woodstock’s again and this time I got the meatball and olive pizza, while my sister got the pepperoni. We went back to campus right after we got the pizza and went to the school library. My sister then had to check out a textbook from the reserves, but someone had it checked out. It was going to be due soon, so she reserved it. We were given a buzzer, which will vibrate and blink twelve...
Today we went to the ARC and played badminton. At home, I printed out the reader for SOC. So much paper and ink!
Watched Liao Zhai today.

My CHE professor switches slides too fast! It’s also hard to hear him because he sometimes mumbles in the middle of his sentences.
My CHE TA introduced himself and he said that he’s from Shanghai, China.
He makes simple concepts hard to understand. He actually made unit conversions and significant figures complicating and those are really easy.
HIS discussion was pretty quiet. There’s only twelve...

First day of school today! The AC in my SOC class was so cold!
I went to the Book Store to buy a lab notebook, but they didn’t have any yet.
We watched Mulan for nth time together. It always makes me cry.
We went to Safeway and bought a baguette, some bananas and broccoli. We went home to eat and watched Tale of Despereaux. The movie was weird.
Now, we’re getting ready to go to the Resource Fair on campus.

We got up at 6:50 in the morning to get ready to go. I packed up my stuff and we headed off for Amtrak at 8. The train left at 9:05. We had two suitcases, so when we got up the stairs and the train started moving, the lady made us put them on the luggage racks. She checked our tickets and punched a hole through the ticket. She was pretty gruff and mean. We wanted to put the suitcases with us, but...
My dad, mom, sister, and I walked over to the Farmer’s Market to see what they were selling. We ended up buying some fruits and greens.
Watched New York Minute for the nth time.
We went to Fry’s planning to buy the Acer that was on sale, but we looked at the keys and went, “Uhhhh… That doesn’t look too good.”
A worker went by to help us and he said that he used those keys for a demo and the keys popped off, so we looked at other laptops and decided to not buy any. Isn’t that guy supposed to persuade us to buy it? LOL. That was nice of him to tell us.
We changed the water,...
We went to EC Library, the Costco. After Costco, we walked over Viet Today to see how they were going to sell that advertised antenna. When we found their office, we peeked in and a bunch of the workers were in there eating and talking loudly. It looked weird and unsanitary, so we left. I mean, everyone was hanging right where guests come in. they’re also chewing and talking at the same time. Not...
We watched Raise the Red Lantern.
I watched Ghost Writers this morning until my sister left to visit the high school.
When she came back, we watched Gun Metal Grey and Ghost Writers.

Watched Gun Metal Grey today.
We went to the Great Mall today. We bought six shorts at Burlington’s, three for each of us. We went to Fry’s looking for laptops, but couldn’t find any that we were satisfied with.
After Fry’s, we went to my grandma’s, where my uncle made us steak with mushroom, with canned corn and asparagus as sides. We then worked together on the logo.
Last night, we got home at around 12 midnight.
We left early to go to Janine’s cotillion, which was being held at David’s Restaurant. I’m reading over my speech. :D

The people filming with my uncle today were John, my sister, and me. Not that my sister and I would be doing much filming. We’re mostly tagging along to see how he works.
Before leaving, we ordered sandwiches at Aroma Cafe and bought drinks at the Liquor Store in the same area as the sandwich store.
My uncle then drove us over to Holy Trinity Church, where the wedding vow renewal ceremony was...
We went to my grandma’s this morning. Afterwards, we went to the Great Mall, only to find that it wouldn’t open until 1000, so we went to the library instead. Yeah, nice alternate. :D
Janine asked me to be a candle, so I wrote my speech today! There was also the confusion over who she hired to film and take pictures for her cotillion.
My sister came home today!
I was watching the Korean channel today and around the time she was coming home, Don’t Cry by Park Bom was on the television! It’s such a pretty music video.
I dyed my hair this morning with a box of Revlon 48 Burgundy. It came out very nice, but I wanted it to be brighter. You can’t really see the color indoors, but it’s really bright in the sun. Why are hair dyes like this? Or is it me? Or the color?
My mom and I went to change the water, which is across the street from Kohl’s, so we went to Kohl’s to see if there was anything to buy. I bought five shirts and two bags!
Afterwards, we went to Seafood City and bought some pretzels at Rite Aid.
I went to the library to read some books.
This morning, I was able to find a present for Janine’s cotillion/birthday, but still no dress.
I drove around with my mom to various places until my grandma called us to come over. So, I drove to the Fry’s near my grandma’s to look for a laptop, then drove to her place. Well, my eighth great aunt came to my grandma’s to hang out. I haven’t seen her in a while. She...
I went shopping for dresses to wear to my friend’s cotillion, but couldn’t find anything that I liked/looked good in.
At home, I watched Drunken Fist which was playing downstairs. I didn’t really like it, though. I went on to watch a dik dik and leopard documentary upstairs (two separate documentaries).

The Invisible
I watched The Invisible last night. I thought it was okay.
I went to EC Library today and brought along my laptop, but the internet was down. Why?!
I also had my Pass 2 today, so I was able to sign up for new classes/switch up some classes.
